In an android project i had this intent to pick a phone number from my contact list
btnContacts.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Open Contacts
Intent intent= new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
intent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_TYPE);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
}
});
and this to get the result
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT) :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactUri = data.getData();
String[] projection = new String[] { ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME };
Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contactUri, projection, null, null, null);
if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
insertedPhoneNumber = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
String name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
formatContact(insertedPhoneNumber, name);
}
}
break;
}
}
I would like to know if there is a way to do the same operation but if the contact dindt had phone number i would retrive the email instead.

No. You ask for phone numbers you get phone numbers. If you need additional logic or ifs, then you need to code it yourself.

I created an onActivityResult method. I am in the contact list, Upon clicking I should get the name and the phone number of the contact, but it crashes.
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
//TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
if (reqCode == PICK_CONTACT) {
if(resultCode == ActionBarActivity.RESULT_OK){
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if(c.moveToFirst()) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
String phone = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
Toast.makeText(this, "You've picked" + name, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
}
Please note, if I remove the line
String phone = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
it doesn't crash. (But I don't get the phone number.
I am working with an app, in this I have to search contacts when the button click and select one of the contact from phone contacts. Finally I want to set it to edittext.I can able to search the contacts from phone contacts but I am unable to get contact from phone contacts.
activity:
searchBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
startActivityForResult(intent,1);
}
});
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode==RESULT_OK){
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String number = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow
(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
//contactName.setText(name);
ephoneNumber.setText(number);
//contactEmail.setText(email);
}
}
First set Intent for StartActivityForResult Like this
private void pickContact() {
Intent pickContactIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Uri.parse("content://contacts"));
pickContactIntent.setType(Phone.CONTENT_TYPE); // Show user only contacts w/ phone numbers
startActivityForResult(pickContactIntent, PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST);
}
then deal with result what intent carry from native contact application
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// Check which request it is that we're responding to
if (requestCode == PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST) {
// Make sure the request was successful
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
// Get the URI that points to the selected contact
Uri contactUri = data.getData();
// We only need the NUMBER column, because there will be only one row in the result
String[] projection = {Phone.NUMBER};
// Perform the query on the contact to get the NUMBER column
// We don't need a selection or sort order (there's only one result for the given URI)
// CAUTION: The query() method should be called from a separate thread to avoid blocking
// your app's UI thread. (For simplicity of the sample, this code doesn't do that.)
// Consider using CursorLoader to perform the query.
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver()
.query(contactUri, projection, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
// Retrieve the phone number from the NUMBER column
int column = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER);
String number = cursor.getString(column);
// Do something with the phone number...
}
}
}

Bharat,
You need permission like -
android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"/>
Then, Calling the Contact Picker
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
Then,
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT) :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People.NAME));
// TODO Whatever you want to do with the selected contact name.
}
}
break;
}
}
OR, In other way You can use
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
int contactIdIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone._ID);
int nameIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
int phoneNumberIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER);
int photoIdIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.PHOTO_ID);
cursor.moveToFirst();
do {
String idContact = cursor.getString(contactIdIdx);
String name = cursor.getString(nameIdx);
String phoneNumber = cursor.getString(phoneNumberIdx);
//...
} while (cursor.moveToNext());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
Above solution is simple and working for contact number fetching.
try this
CursorLoader cursorLoader = new CursorLoader(mActivity,
CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
managedCursor = cursorLoader.loadInBackground();
int number = managedCursor.getColumnIndex(CallLog.Calls.NUMBER);
int name = managedCursor.getColumnIndex(CallLog.Calls.CACHED_NAME);
String conTactnumber=managedCursor.getString(number);
String contactname=managedCursor.getString(name);
set permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" >
</uses-permission>
I want to get contact number from contact list. In Android application on button i want get number from contact list of phone.
Means it click on Select button, & open contact list. it select number, & display in textview.
Please give me a solution.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT) :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
// TODO Whatever you want to do with the selected contact name.
}
}
break;
}
}
I got this answer from the following link
http://tutorials-android.blogspot.in/2011/11/how-to-call-android-contacts-list.html
How can I implement contacts in my own app? I want to, when I click on button, show all contacts from my phone. Can you tell me something about it? Like in when you want send SMS. Click on button, choose contacts and send.
First you query the full contacts and add into list view and select contact, then you search of query contacts.
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,null, null, null);
phones.moveToFirst();
for(int i =0;i<phones.getCount();i++)
{
String lookupKey = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY));
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_VCARD_URI, lookupKey);
}
you need to starActivityforResult with below intent
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
define a constant like int PICK_CONTACT = 1;
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
and should have onActivityResult method such as below.
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT) :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
// TODO Whatever you want to do with the selected contact name.
}
}
break;
}
}
here is complete tutorial for this how-to-call-android-contacts-list
I'm using the old Contacts API to choose a contact with a phone number. I want to use the newer ContactsContracts API. I want...
...a dialog shown with all contacts that have phone numbers.
...the user to choose a contact AND one of their phone numbers.
...access to the chosen phone number.
The ContactsContracts is very complicated. I found many examples, but none that fit my needs. I don't want to choose a contact and then query for the contact's details because this will give me a list of their phone numbers. I need the user to choose ONE of the contact's phone numbers. I don't want to have to write my own dialogs to display the contacts or to have the user pick a phone number. Is there any simple way to get what I want?
Here is the old API code I'm using:
static public final int CONTACT = 0;
...
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Contacts.Phones.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, CONTACT);
...
public void onActivityResult (int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
if (resultCode != Activity.RESULT_OK || requestCode != CONTACT) return;
Cursor c = managedQuery(intent.getData(), null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String phone = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(Contacts.Phones.NUMBER));
// yay
}
}
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_TYPE);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
This code might help you. I think the PICK action only returns the ID of the contact picked. From that you could query the Contact provider and if there are multiple phone numbers, prompt the user to select one of them.
You can use this too (updated):
public void readcontact(){
try {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Uri.parse("content://contacts/people"));
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT) :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
startManagingCursor(c);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People.NAME));
String number = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People.NUMBER));
personname.setText(name);
Toast.makeText(this, name + " has number " + number, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
break;
}
}

You can use this:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
switch (requestCode) {
case CONTACT_PICKER_RESULT:
final EditText phoneInput = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.phoneNumberInput);
Cursor cursor = null;
String phoneNumber = "";
List<String> allNumbers = new ArrayList<String>();
int phoneIdx = 0;
try {
Uri result = data.getData();
String id = result.getLastPathSegment();
cursor = getContentResolver().query(Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=?", new String[] { id }, null);
phoneIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.DATA);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
while (cursor.isAfterLast() == false) {
phoneNumber = cursor.getString(phoneIdx);
allNumbers.add(phoneNumber);
cursor.moveToNext();
}
} else {
//no results actions
}
} catch (Exception e) {
//error actions
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
final CharSequence[] items = allNumbers.toArray(new String[allNumbers.size()]);
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(your_class.this);
builder.setTitle("Choose a number");
builder.setItems(items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int item) {
String selectedNumber = items[item].toString();
selectedNumber = selectedNumber.replace("-", "");
phoneInput.setText(selectedNumber);
}
});
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
if(allNumbers.size() > 1) {
alert.show();
} else {
String selectedNumber = phoneNumber.toString();
selectedNumber = selectedNumber.replace("-", "");
phoneInput.setText(selectedNumber);
}
if (phoneNumber.length() == 0) {
//no numbers found actions
}
}
break;
}
} else {
//activity result error actions
}
}
You need to adapt this to work with your app.
Here you can find a great code from : http://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/result.html
static final int PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST = 1; // The request code
...
private void pickContact() {
Intent pickContactIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Uri.parse("content://contacts"));
pickContactIntent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_TYPE); // Show user only contacts w/ phone numbers
startActivityForResult(pickContactIntent, PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST);
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// Check which request it is that we're responding to
if (requestCode == PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST) {
// Make sure the request was successful
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
// Get the URI that points to the selected contact
Uri contactUri = data.getData();
// We only need the NUMBER column, because there will be only one row in the result
String[] projection = {Phone.NUMBER};
// Perform the query on the contact to get the NUMBER column
// We don't need a selection or sort order (there's only one result for the given URI)
// CAUTION: The query() method should be called from a separate thread to avoid blocking
// your app's UI thread. (For simplicity of the sample, this code doesn't do that.)
// Consider using CursorLoader to perform the query.
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver()
.query(contactUri, projection, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
// Retrieve the phone number from the NUMBER column
int column = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER);
String number = cursor.getString(column);
// Do something with the phone number...
}
}
}
From the older answers and my own tests I ended using this:
launching contact list:
import android.content.Intent;
import android.provider.ContactsContract;
import android.provider.ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone;
...
public static final int PICK_CONTACT = 100;
...
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
intent.setType(Phone.CONTENT_TYPE); //should filter only contacts with phone numbers
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
onActivityResult handler:
private static final String[] phoneProjection = new String[] { Phone.DATA };
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (PICK_CONTACT != requestCode || RESULT_OK != resultCode) return;
Uri contactUri = data.getData();
if (null == contactUri) return;
//no tampering with Uri makes this to work without READ_CONTACTS permission
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contactUri, phoneProjection, null, null, null);
if (null == cursor) return;
try {
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String number = cursor.getString(0);
// ... use "number" as you wish
}
} finally {
cursor.close();
}
// "cursor" is closed here already
}
So what are the differences from Rizvan answer?
On my testing device (Samsung S3):
the app does NOT need READ_CONTACS permission (because I use the returned uri as is, when I use only the "id" of it and create select ID=? query type, the permission crash happens)
when contact has multiple phone numbers, the picker itself does show dialog to select only one of them, then it returns uri which leads directly to that single selected number
even if some phone would return uri to multiple numbers, the proposed onActivityResult handler can be extended to read them all and you can do your own selection dialog.
So this looks to me like perfect fit for what OP asked.
Now I just wonder:
on which phones this will require the READ_CONTACTS permission (it should not, according to http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-provider-basics.html#Intents )
on which phones it will return multiple numbers instead of doing the selection dialog
Let me know if you have real world experience with it, thanks.
Update:
HTC Desire S, custom rom with android 4.0.3 -> has both problems, requires READ_CONTACTS permission to work, and will return multiple numbers without additional selection dialog.
I find one way to pick exactly the phone number from contact list.
Below is the snippet.
1.Launch contacts to select phone numbers in fragment.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
// filter the contacts with phone number only
intent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_TYPE);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
2.Pick the selected phone numbers in fragment.
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT):
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor cur = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (cur == null) return;
try {
if (cur.moveToFirst()) {
int phoneIndex = cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
mobileNoEditText.setText(cur.getString(phoneIndex));
}
}
finally {
cur.close();
}
}
}
}
P.S. private final int PICK_CONTACT = 666;
